Gorgeous summer wedding flowers in pink, nude and green

Comment   

It was a real pleasure to be asked to provide this gorgeous summer mix of flowers for the weekend's wedding of K & J's.

The bride chose lovely nude and pale pink roses, pale green eustoma, white astrantia, pink spray roses and thalspi and eucalyptus foliage.

The beautiful bouquet of lushness.

The stems were bound lightly with lace over hessian to give a natural loose bunch feel to the bouquet.

The bridesmaids all carried bouquets of gyp.

(I'm real sorry for the photos, so many came out blurred, these are the best of the bunch!!)

Three adult bridesmaids and a small posy for the flower girl.

The groom wore a natural style buttonhole of a selection of flowers from the bridal bouquet (as per tradition)

The groomsmen wore gyp buttonholes with a hessian wrap to match the bridesmaid flowers (another tradition)

The ladies of the wedding party wore corsages of a pink and nude rose with other blooms from the brides bouquet.

Groom and groomsmen buttonholes ready for delivery

and the ladies too. 

If going to the same venue, ladies and gents buttonholes are usually separated so they can go to the respective main getting ready area without any fuss.

We were asked to provide a small top table long and low for the sweetheart table at the venue.

Again a lovely mix of flowers from the bride's bouquet.

These sweetheart tables are getting very popular with my couples. Be that for family logistic reasons (parents who are divorced, with new partners, lets be honest, don't always get on) or whether just so the newly weds can spend an hour or so enjoying the day together, chatting over the wedding breakfast. Don't be afraid to bin tradition to suit you and your family set up. The day is a celebration and if setting the seating up differently helps the enjoyment flow then go ahead.

These wedding flowers are just so suitable for a relaxed set up and afternoon tea.

If you are having a similar day then we can help you style your flowers whatever the colours.

Debra and Matt held their wedding breakfast and reception at the gorgeous Cleatham Hall where I am one of the preferred partners at this wonderful venue.

The colours of dusky pink and ivory were continued through all of the designs.

The very lovely fireplace was given its own stunning design the full length of the mantlepiece. A mix of roses, lilies, alstroemeria, chrysants, gyp and mixed foliage.

The guest tables had these gorgeous flower balls balanced on tall clear lily vases.

The stunning orangery at Cleatham Hall

The top table was an unusual L shape and on this there was a long and low style design and a flower ball on the other arm.

The tables were kept minimal and this really helped show off the flowers.

These were the same mix as the fireplace design

The room all ready for the arrival of the happy couple.

This Venue is lovely and light with views across the garden that lend it to natural type designs but can also take a splash of colour. The last set up I styled flowers for was also very natural and minimal table decorations. See here

Unusually the bride crept in while I was still setting up and all I heard was 

'Wow, just Wow!!'

You can't get a better reaction than that.

If you are getting married here at Cleatham Hall or would like to create a similar set up at your chosen venue then please get in touch to discuss your options.

The flower balls are created separate to the vase and can be kept or given away to guests after the day is over. The vases can be hired (or bought) and will be collected the very next day so you can get on with enjoying the start of married life.

All vases can be hired with or without flowers.
